Sit back, relax, and enjoy this beautiful mix of music, animals, and scenery. Music by ABBA.  This is absolutely brilliant!  What a photographer, and what 'an eye.'  This will take your breath away. Turn on the sound!!!!

Watch out what you wish for!!!!!
Sep 28, 2007 | 4:54PM
A man was sick and tired of going to work every day
 while his wife stayed home.
 He wanted her to see what he went through so he prayed:
 "Dear Lord: I go to work every day and put in 8
 hours while my wife merely stays at home.
 I want her to know what I go through, so please
 allow her body to switch with mine for a day.
 Amen.
 God, in his infinite wisdom, granted the man's wish.
 The next morning, sure enough, the man awoke as a
 woman
 He arose, cooked breakfast for his mate, awakened
 the kids, set out their school clothes, fed them breakfast, packed
 their lunches, drove them to school, came home and picked up the dry
 cleaning, took it to the cleaners and stopped at the bank to make a
 deposit, went grocery shopping, then drove home to
 put away the groceries, paid the bills and balanced
 the chequebook.
 He cleaned the cat's litter box and bathed the dog.
 Then it was already 1 P.M . and he hurried to make
 the beds, do the laundry, vacuum, dust, and sweep and mop the kitchen floor.
 Ran to the school to pick up the kids and got into
 an argument with them on the way home. Set out milk and cookies
 and got the kids organized to do their homework, then set up the
 ironing board and watched TV while he did the ironing.
  At 4:30 he began peeling potatoes and washing
 vegetables for salad, breaded the pork chops and snapped fresh beans
 for supper. After supper, he cleaned the kitchen, ran the
 dishwasher, folded laundry, bathed the kids, and put them to bed.
  At 9 P.M. he was exhausted and, though his daily
 chores weren't finished, he went to bed where he was expected to
 make love, which he managed to get through without complaint.
  The next morning, he awoke and immediately knelt by
 the bed and said:
  Lord, I don't know what I was thinking. I was so
 wrong to envy my wife's being able to stay home all day.
  Please, oh please, let us trade back."
 
  The Lord, in his infinite wisdom, replied:
 "My son, I feel you have learned your lesson and I
 will be happy to change things back to the way they were. You'll just have
 to wait nine months, though. You got pregnant last night."

Three things to ponder!
Sep 28, 2007 | 4:47PM

1.Cows                                                                                                                                                                   2. The Constitution .                                                                                                                                                                     3.The Ten Commandments Cows

 

 Is it just me, or does anyone else find it amazing that our government can track a single cow born in Canada, almost three years ago, right to the stall where she sleeps in the state of Washington ? And, also tracked her calves to their stalls. But they are unable to locate 12 million illegal aliens wandering around our country. Maybe we should give each of them a cow.  

                                                                                                                                                                                               The Constitution They keep talking about drafting a Constitution for Iraq . Why don't we just give them ours? It was written by a lot of really smart guys, it has worked for over 200 years, and we're not using it anymore. 

                                                                                                                                                  The Ten Commandments The real reason that we can't have the Ten Commandments posted in a courthouse is this: You cannot post "Thou Shalt Not Steal," "Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery", and "Thou Shall Not Lie" in a building full of lawyers, judges and politicians. It creates a hostile work environment.

Don't mess with the older crowd!

This is so true! They always ask at the doctor's office why you are there, and you have to answer in front of others what's wrong and sometimes it is embarrassing.

There's nothing worse than a Doctor's Receptionist who insists you tell her what is wrong with you in a room full of other patients. I know most of us have experienced this, and I love the way this old guy handled it.

An 86 year old man walked into a crowded waiting room and approached the desk.... The Receptionist said, "Yes sir, what are you seeing the Doctor for today?"

"There's something wrong with my dick", he replied.

The receptionist became irritated and said, "You shouldn't come into a crowded waiting room and say things like that."

"Why not? You asked me what was wrong and I told you," he said.

The Receptionist replied; "Now you've caused some embarrassment in this room full of people. You should have said there is something wrong with your ear or something and discussed the problem further with the Doctor in private."

The man replied, "You shouldn't ask people questions in a room full of strangers, if the answer could embarrass anyone. The man walked out, waited several minutes and then re-entered.

The Receptionist smiled smugly and asked, "Yes??"

"There's something wrong with my ear", he stated.

The Receptionist nodded approvingly and smiled, knowing he had taken her advice. "And what is wrong with your ear, Sir??"

"I can't [censored] out of it," he replied.

The waiting room erupted in laughter.

Mess with seniors and you're gonna lose!

Husband:  Oh, come on.
Wife:
 Leave me alone!
Husband:
 It won't take long.
Wife:
 I won't be able to sleep afterwards.
Husband:
 I can't sleep without it.
Wife:
 Why do you think of things like this in the middle of the night?
Husband:
 Because I'm Hot.
Wife:
 You get hot at the darnedest times.
Husband:
 If you love me I wouldn't have to beg you.
Wife:
 If you love me you'd be more considerate.
Husband:
 You don't love me anymore.
Wife:
Yes I do, but let's forget it for tonight.
Husband:
 Please...come on

Wife:
 Alright, I'll do it.
Husband:
 What's the matter? Need a flashlight?
Wife:
 I can't find it.
Husband:
 Oh, for heaven's sake, feel for it!
Wife:
 There! Are you satisfied?
Husband:
 Oh, yes.
Wife:
 Is it up far enough?
Husband:
 Oh, that's good.
Wife:
 Now go to sleep, and from now on when you want the window open,
do it yourself.

Peace on Earth

© By Aswin Natarajan

The world is chaotic and violent
How are people so uncaringly silent?
When such depressing sounds,
Surround the city plagued with mounds?

This world seems so saddening
And this mental prison is so maddening!
Fifty deaths and the genocide
And the news I'd got; my bro had died.

Gang wars in the streets of L.A,
And some criminal tries to get away,
A man yells and asks to be saved
He prays for the peace that he'd craved.

Peace on earth is not here yet
But that doesn't mean that you can forget
So please stop complaining, do some good today.
And stop being the unfeeling cliche'.

Be a giver and give a lot
Give it all you've got, its your last shot.

Would you drive over this bridge?
May 21, 2007 | 1:48PM
Would you be scared to drive across this bridge .

The Millau viaduct is part of the new E11 expressway connecting Paris and Barcelona and features
the highest bridge piers ever constructed. The tallest is 240 meters (787 feet) h igh and the
overall height will be an impressive 336 meters (1102 feet), making this the highest bridge in the world.

I would have a hard time with this bridge, I know that I could not drive over

I am just an ordinary Mother and Grandma that enjoys talking to friends and I enjoy my grandkids and love to travel with my husband of almost 40 years. High school sweethearts and still very best friends. I really do not have much of interest to say but maybe someone out there would like to talk, I am a very good listener. I love to read and really like mysteries.
